Description

The Blob (Paramount, 1958). Lobby Card Set of 8 (11" X 14").
One of the most popular science fiction films of the 1950s, this is
the story of a strange, gelatinous alien invader who comes to Earth
in a meteorite and grows to gigantic size, devouring everything in
sight. An early picture for Steve McQueen, he was offered either a
flat fee of $2,500 for appearing in the film, or 10% of the
profits. Apparently, McQueen had no faith in the picture, as he
took the flat fee. The movie went on to gross more than $4 million.
Offered here is a great lobby card set from this perennially
popular film. Most of the cards have paper tape on the reverse, the
#4 card has creasing in the bottom border and pinholes in the top
border, the #5 card shows a corner bend in the top right and
smudging in the right border, and the #7 card has a bottom left
corner bend, but aside from these extremely minor flaws, this is a
very attractive, and very desirable set from a popular and enduring
film. Very Fine-.
